after they get tagged, it's like 48 hours and they get towed to a towyard.
that place will hold the car for months and steal everything out of it.

i think after they hold the car for like 180 days or something (depends on the state) they can do as they wish with it.

if it's abandoned on the side of the highway, it's probably not that nice.

If you like in Arizona you can tow the car to your property after like 5 days and report it to the DMV. If it is not claimed within a certain time frame the car is yours.

actually, this teg looked really nice (exterior-wise at least). It was like a '98+ dark green teg with LS mesh wheels in really good shape. h:
